would be nice if you could leave some comments on sound, etc...

if it sounds bad just say it

just wanna know if my work was for nothing or not
then i'd better learn for my exams

any ideas/suggestions how to continue or what to work on?

1st
wicked loop for sure....sounds really good
that last synth stab thing that comes in is too high me thinks...
so either frequency it down a bit...or use volume

and for the second one...i think it is also dope....but that last melody stab thing is also sittin too on top of stuff

but yeah for sure wicked loops

Nice deep stuff, i like the deep wobling bassline thingy, sounds real organic.
Maybe you could add a very short click on the clap to give it just that extra groove.

The second one is bit less deeper, more funky in a way, but still with a cool bassline.

The first one fits me best! it's deep and organic sound fits me best.

Unfortunately i can't help you out on sound and mix, i'm listening over 1 crappy earplug. But what i hear does sound good...

...good stuff mate. Dirty and deep!! Am listening in the studio - the sound isn't bad at all, maybe just need to tame the bass of the second track a little. Get them arranged dude!!

thanks for the kind words.. i know the bass is a bit heavy.. i'm always cutting the bass about 5db on my mixer because of my neighbors..
and i always recognize this when its already exported :-/ but anyway

for these loops i just jused a few drum samples and a chord-line from a friend of mine.. just played around with pitching/eqing/sampling/layering and things
and as always a little bit of reaktor

.. but it's killing my cpu.. have to get a new one :-/
will have to spend some time on arranging thats true.. hmpf.. never finished something yet.. it's frustrating

What CPU do you have? You have external DSP Processing Units in youre enviroment? Just interested because Reaktor is killing my cpu as well

Will listen to the loops tomorrow

nope i dont have any external dsp's, just have an athlon xp2800+.. i mean this thing fitted my needs.. i'm used to export my synth loops to save cpu and its ok.. but since im using wizooverb (wich is really great) as send effect (this thing kills 20% of my cpu).. u know its hard to export samples when u use send effects on so much instruments or tracks.. damn.. just planning to get the amd x2... but this needs a new mainboard etc etc etc... u can ímagine.. i'm a student! damn!
